Abstract:

For an infinite cardinal $\alpha$, the lexicographically ordered space ${\left \{ {0,1} \right \}^\alpha }$ is denoted $\Lambda (\alpha )$; its density is denoted $d\Lambda (\alpha )$. Completing a computation left unfinished elsewhere, we prove $d\Lambda (\alpha ) = {2^{_\smile ^\alpha }}$.
